the American Red Cross will begin a
program to train instructors for the
new "Foundations for Caregivers"
course, ine complete training
package will set a new standard in
quality Caregiving. The end result
with training from the American Red
Cross will be nurse assistants who
have a greater understanding into the
essentials of Caregiving.
To access the American Red Cross
Foundations forCaregiving Program,
you must be a Red Cross trained and
certified instructor. Instructor
candidates will receive over 25 hours
of quality training to deliver a state
approved program.
The Deschutes County Chapter
has an excellent brochure available
that outlines the entire course.
For more information on all Red
Cross classes or this class please call
Bob Alexander at 382-2142. You
may also stop in at the office next to
G.I. Joe's in the Mountain View Mall.
An advance directive is a way
to say what you would want done
about your health care if you can
no longer decide for yourself. An
advance directive can take many
forms. You can discuss your
concerns with your doctor, nurse,
or social worker. Your decision
will be written in your medical
record. You should also fill out a
form which gives us legal
authority to carry out your wishes.
The VA has three kinds of legal
forms which can be used. They
are:
VA living WillVA
Advance Directive.
VA Durable Power of
Attorney for Health care.
Treatment Preference Form.
Each form serves a different
purpose on your behalf. The
completion of only one form may
not reflect all your decisions.
VA Living WillVA Advance
Directive.
This is a form which states
what you would want done if you
develop a terminal illness. A
terminal illness is one in which
there is no cure and in which
death is expected within a period
of six months. This form tells us
your wishes about life-sustaining
care.
This Care Includes:
Heart and lung resuscitation
(CPR) CPR involves pressing on
the chest to restore blood flow
once the heart has stopped beating
and putting air into the lungs to
give you oxygen. It has also been
called " mouth to mouth
resuscitation".
Mechanical ventilation
The placement of a tube down
your throat and into your lungs.
The tube is attached to a machine
that helps you breathe.
Dialysis The cleansing of
the blood by a machine when the
kidneys fail.
Artificial Nutrition
Feedings given through the veins
or through the tube into the
stomach.
Artificial Hydration Fluids
given through the veins.
The major problem with the
Living Will is that it only applies
to patients with terminal illness.
If you are in a coma, you could
live longer than six months. This
would not be considered a
terminal illness. In this case, it
would be best also to have filled
out a Durable Power of Attorney
for Health Care or a VA
Treatment Preference Form.
VA Durable Power of
Attorney For Health Care:
This form allows you to pick
someone to make decisions about
your health care if you cannot do
so yourself. This person is called
health care agent. You may pick
anyone for your health care agent.
Most patients will pick their
spouse or another member of their
family. You should pick someone
you trust. It is important for you
to talk to your health care agent and
tell her or him what you would
want done.
Treatment Preference form
you can also complete a
Treatment Preference form which
can be used with a Living Will and
a Durable Power of Attorney for
Health Care. This form describes
some situations can occur such as
brain damage or coma. When you
complete this form it helps your
doctor or health care agent know
what treatment you would want in
each situation.
Filling Out The Forms
You do not need a lawyer to
complete these forms. Each form
you fill out must be witnessed by
two people. Witnesses can be.
a neighbor
a friend
amemberofanotherpatient's
family.
If none of these people are
available, the glowing hospital staff
may be willing to be a witness:
a chaplain
a social worker
a clerk
The following cannot be
witnesses:
a member of your family
anyone paying your medical
bills.
anyone who may inherit your
estate.
hospital staff who directly
takes care of you such as doctors or
nurses.
Carrying Out Your Wishes
Once you have made these
important decisions, we want to
make sure that they are carried out.
We will note on your chart and in
the Medical Center computer
systems that you have "Advance
Directives". You can change your
mind at any time regarding your
decisions for treatment. New forms
will need to be filled out. Please let
us know if you make any changes
so that we can update our records.
If you have any questions, please
talk to your doctor, nurse, social
worker or chaplain.
Veterans Day Observed Nov. 15, 1997
The observance of Veterans
day on November 11, 1997, was
very simple here in Warm Springs,
as Veterans gathered at the stone
outside of the Tribal Court house
and had a short service.
Pierson Mitchell, a member of
the local VFW Post No. 4217,
read a script pertaining to the
Veterans day.
In part. " We remember how
men and women set aside their
civilian pursuits to serve their
nations cause, defending the
freedom of man and perserving
our precious American Heritge.
"We believe our strength on
the field of battle, on the supply
lines which nourished our armed
might, lay in the justice of our
cause against the forces of evil.
We believe that our determination
made us better warriors because
we fought with our minds and our
hearts as well as our bodies.
"We recognize that service to
our country and her cause does
not end with the termination of
military service. We continue our
endeavors in behalf on an
honorable world peace with a
feeling of profound gratitude to
God, and to the men and women
who gave their lives as their part
of the cost of this nobles of
causes.
"Out of blood and sweat we
learned of purpose, sacrifice,
tolerance, bravery, and discipline.
These are solid foundation stones
upon which a great nation is built.
In our continuing quest for an
honorable world peace we must
cultivate these virtues."
With the shortage of Veterans
there was no gun solute and the
Vice Commander, Kirby Heath
made remarks of the observance
of Veterans day and concluded with
a prayer. The formation was
dismissed at that time.
On Saturday, November 15,
1997, Veterans gathered on the
campus area and had a parade
through Warm Springs on
Hollywood Boulevard, to the long
house, where lunch was served.
A pow-wow commemorating the
Veterans day started at 2:00 p.m.
and another grand entry was in
the evening where all the veterans
were acknowledged with a special
song and their dance.
After those services the contest
dancing started and went into the
night with plenty of fine dancers.
On Sunday after the pow-wow,
the colors were retrieved by the
Veterans and put away for another
good day.
Alcohol remains in body seven days-
How many people arrive at their
jobs with alcohol in their body ? Does
it affect the people around them?
Does it affect everyday decisions
being made?
Example 1: Lets say you con
sume three 1 2 oz. drinks on Saturday
night. On Monday you arrive at work,
with alcohol in your body. On Tues
day you arrive at work, with alcohol
still in your body. Yes, three days
later you still have alcohol in your
system.
Equation: You had three 12 oz
drinks on Saturday and it will take
three days to exit and you're wonder
ing why. Well, for every 1 oz. of
alcohol you drink, it will take 2 hours
to leave your body. So 12 oz. will
take 24 hours, multiplied by 3 drinks
equals 72 hours or 3 days.
Example 2: Now lets say you
have three more 12 oz. drinks on
Wednesday night. You will still have
alcohol in your body on Saturday.
Guess what? You've had the affects
of alcohol for 7 days.
Let s touch on some, not all, af
fects of alcohol. Alters mood swings,
want to be left alone. Alters thought
process, production level is low,
thinking is not clear. You could co
Remember the questions in the
beginning. Can we answer them? Are
there more questions? If you ask the
questions are you going to get a re
sponse from a person who had the
three drinks or from the person who
does not any drinks? Close your eyes
and look through the organization (is
this what is happening, eye closing)
and try to see what is happening or
not happening.
Can the same test as the drug test
be used to determine who alcohol
may be affecting. You hear people
saying "If the tribe tested after New
Years, tournaments, Pi-Ume-Sha
etc., how many people would be posi
tive for drugs or alcohol".
Is it time to get tougher on the use
of alcohol since this is a "Dry Reser
vation"? Are we in control of the tribe or
does the tribe control us? Is the orga
nization (web.dicdefine: a group of
people united for some purpose) an
organization? Food for the mind!
Hmmmm.
